  • Build scalable integration patterns using APIs, middleware, messaging platforms and event streaming.
  • Work with engineering teams on DevSecOps, CI/CD, containers, Kubernetes, observability and reliability practices.
  • Work with security teams to build in secure-by-design principles, identity management and regulatory compliance.
  • Assess emerging technologies, including AI and GenAI, and define reusable architecture patterns that deliver business value.
  • Mentor architects and engineers and shape enterprise technology direction and architecture governance.

Requirements

  • You have hands-on cloud architecture experience, ideally with Microsoft Azure.
  • You have strong experience with microservices, API architecture and integration patterns.
  • You have supported architecture governance, standards development and enterprise technology roadmaps.
  • You can explain architecture decisions, risks and tradeoffs to both technical and business audiences.
  • Nice to have: experience with event-driven and composable architecture design.
  • Nice to have: working knowledge of data integration, data modeling and data platform concepts.
  • Nice to have: experience with security architecture, identity and access management (IAM), Zero Trust and secure-by-design practices.
  • Nice to have: experience with container technologies and Kubernetes platform architecture.
  • Nice to have: experience with DevSecOps, infrastructure as code, CI/CD pipelines and automated deployment.
  • Nice to have: experience with performance engineering, scalability tuning and resiliency design.
